As mine seems to be ok even though I’ve pointed a pressure washer at it I’d be interested to see the “how to check” notice from LR as living where I do with relatively little rain, the vehicle kept in the garage and low miles due to 2020 I never feel confident I don’t have the leaking issue...

Mine was fixed by the dealer just having a local windshield shop remove and reinstall correctly. Has been fine.

Thanks @Discovery5 and @GraemeJB the doc (and the video version of) make it obvious how to check. I’ll just have to make sure I have enough cans of compressed air lying around, lol! Definitely something I’ll try for peace of mind.

I thought that I'm going to be fine, but had water drops on my dash this morning after the car was outside all night.

Dealer is checking into availability right now, but stated that the windshield will be replaced. My D5 is from 2018 and has 40K on it. So better now as still under warranty.

That's what I was told too. They ordered the windshield after I sent them the picture explaining that this can only be fixed by replacing the windshield, since it mostly likely will break when removed.

Dang. We live in the PNW. It rains a bit. No issues until this Saturday just gone with drips coming from near centre. Called local deal, scheduled for "multiple days" Friday 15th with loaner, Service Advisor calling tomorrow.

My wife dropped the Disco into the shop on Friday. They had "several" of these in progress. At the point we don't know timings. However since they gave us a brand new <50KM Rangey Sport TD we're not too fussed.
